If you delete a chat in pinned and recent chats, it also deletes the related activity from Gemini Apps Activity. If data in Gemini Apps Activity is deleted, then the activity won't appear in recent and pinned chats.

If you turn off Gemini Apps Activity, it doesn’t delete your past data, but you can manually delete it anytime at myactivity.google.com/product/gemini.

Conversations that have been reviewed or annotated by human reviewers are not deleted when you delete your Gemini Apps activity because they are kept separately and are not connected to your Google Account. Instead, they are retained for up to three years.

Even when Gemini Apps Activity is off, your conversations will be saved with your account for up to 72 hours to allow Google to provide the service and process any feedback. This activity won’t appear in your Gemini Apps Activity.
